History

“You must be the change you want to see in the world.” – Gandhi

Aspen Learning, founded in 2003 in Malibu, California, began as a mentoring program and quickly evolved into a comprehensive academic organization specializing in customized education for children ages 18 months to 18 years old. Taking a 21st Century Skills based approach to learning, our teachers focus on helping students develop the fundamental skills needed to enhance their success academically, emotionally, and socially.

As a leader in the homeschool community, Aspen Learning has created one of the most progressive and innovative customized homeschool programs in California. Understanding each child’s learning modalities and dispositions through a learning assessment, our teachers are able to connect with each child. Utilizing differentiating instruction, our teachers can better understand each child’s intrinsic motivators, creating applicable learning, and ultimately a love for learning.

Aspen Learning's community presence is a true testament to the positive relationships that we’ve fostered with families, counselors, teachers, and other community organizations.  We’re very active in philanthropy and community service, and are dedicated to helping all children grow academically, emotionally, and socially.

As Aspen Learning continues to grow, our foundation remains solid. We are an organization built on personal relationships and community involvement, dedicated to each student’s growth and personal success.
